Should all UK taxpayers foot the bill for the London Olympics?
The cost of the 2012 London Olympics could end up reaching £20 billion - 10 times as much as the original estimate, a former 2012 boss has claimed. It has even been suggested that the rising cost of the games will be spread across the UK, with taxpayers who live outside of London footing the bill. Do you think that this is fair?

yes the british people SHOULD pay for the olympics look at the money wasted on football BUT most of the money will be spent on redevelopment of the london area so perhaps THAT money 70% of the total bill should come from the LonDon pocket ???

No we should not.We struggle enough to pay for everything else this country introduces...say no more.I think its time this country had a big shake up and sorted it out.If anyone can live in Britain then you can survive anywere else.And they ask"Why are people in debt"
